Second to last set of moomins!


I've realized that these red ones show up really badly on mac monitors (or at least on my laptop monitor) - if you see them on a PC or non-apple monitor, that's what they're supposed to look like. Probably. The difference between the monitors hasn't been bugging me as much on the rest of these, just the red ones.

And some more moomins!


Almost done with these things! Probably one more set.

Another moomin + anger



Just the one moomin color today because I spent the rest of my time doing paid work! :gasp!: And I'm mad because I finished said work for the day and want to watch Veronica Mars (I just got to season 2!), but my computer has decided it's not having any of this DVD business. I drew this on my second monitor, and I realized my drawing of me was literally staring at the cd drive of the laptop next to the monitor. Fin, ever the loyal dog, is also angry.

Even more Moomins + a beach


Same deal as the last post - these are the next four.

I keep doing stuff with basically this color scheme. I need to branch out. But I'm still relatively happy with it.

More moomins!


Color for some story beats of Comet in Moominland.

Colors from Norcal



Just got back from a couple days up north. I forgot my camera, so I'm just going off what I remember it looking like. It was so pretty - I think it'd be fun to go up there and paint. I did some little sketches while out hiking - I might scan those at some point. The first is from when the sun was setting on the way from the Desolation Wilderness to Silver Lake. The second is very loosely based on that giant rock at Morrow Bay on the central coast. That thing is really cool.

Miss Patty out for a walk


There's a whole story with Miss Patty now. I won't get into it. You may remember I posted Miss Patty's Home for Wayward Dogs a while ago (or maybe you don't). Well, I think the city she lives in kind of sucks - it's grey and cold and in the mountains. But not fun mountains that you can ski and hike on. Crappy mountains that block in the town so everything is close and grubby. So here's Miss Patty out for a walk in town. Mostly as a color study. Did I go overboard on the textures? Probably. But I liked it because when I made it black and white and upped the curves it looked like bad xerox. Apparently bad xerox is an aesthetic I'm into now?

Afternoon Walk


I was walking my dog this afternoon and this is what I remember it looking like.

Rough color for treehouse

Super rough color tests for the treehouse. My teacher pointed out that I should add some cast shadows to make it clear that the treehouse is resting on the tree, so if that's unclear right now, that's why.

Homeworks from classes




Linework for a treehouse, a rough for an overly grand child's bedroom, and tone studies for that fisherman's cottage I posted a while back.

Moomins!


I've had a late summer hankering to read some Moomin books again. But unfortunately they are still at my parent's house, I've just never brought them out here. Instead I started drawing pictures. I've read those books so many times I can't even tell you.

Chase scene animatic

Chase from EmilyT on Vimeo.


I kind of missed After Effects, so I started making an animatic for something which I'll probably never actually animate. Although maybe I'll color over all these animatic bits and make a limited animation thing. I don't know. I'll probably add a little more to this scene though. I've kind of been just building it as I go with a rough storyboard that I draw up every time I want to add new stuff.

The music is "Zoosters Breakout" by Hans Zimmer from the Madagascar soundtrack.

The Baron's Dinner


I don't even know.
